We had a family situation. We found toxic mold in the walls of our home and had to evacuate. We have found another home to live in for a year. We had to sign a year lease with the owner.
About our house. We were buying our home that was over priced anyway, but we are young, then our taxes went up so much our house payment skyrocketted an extra $200 a month, then we find toxic mold in our home so we can't live in it and our home owners insurance will not pay for the damage.
We are currently foreclosing on the home. We can not afford to pay for two places to live and the damage from the mold that may or may not be fixable. I sure do not know what God has planned but I sure feel like he is freeing up our lives for something wonderful.
As you all know we are extremely new to the idea of homesteading. It is something we desperately want for our family. We just are not quite sure how to get there. I know that God has a plan though and that is all I need to know. Right now he has us exactly where he wants us to work on us like he has never done before. I pray that we continue to allow him to refine us.
My beliefs have changed so drastically in the last year my family doesn't know what to do with us. But oh do I know what I am doing. I am totally surrendering it to Christ. Giving it all to him. I get so excited. I just don't want none of it. The world I mean.
Give me a quite life Lord, a sanctified life, a holy life, and a life that Glorifies you oh God.
I pray I have time to keep this Blog up. It is nice to be able to just write what is on my mind. After a day doing all the chores and taking care of my precious little ones it is nice to have somewhere to go to just give glory to God with like minded women. Praise God for you all. I enjoy reading your blogs they are a blessing.
